Ethyl 4-nitrophenylacetate

Abstract

In the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C10H11NO4, there are two crystallographically independent mol­ecules, which are connected via a C—H⋯O hydrogen bond. The crystal structure is stabilized by this hydrogen bond together with an N—O⋯π contact [O⋯Cg 3.297 (5) Å; Cg is the centroid of one of the benzene rings].
